The step-mother, only becoming frustrated with how her step-daughter not only in remaining alive, but also in how Vasilisa's beauty continued to grow, decided to change tactics.

On hearing the answer "by my mother's blessing", Baba Yaga, who wanted nobody with any kind of blessing in her presence, threw Vasilisa out of her house, and sent her home with a skull-lantern full of burning coals, to provide light for her step-family.

Upon her return, Vasilisa found that, since sending her out on her task, her step-family had been unable to light any candles or fire in their home.
